{{A Tail of Two Species, a Kevin & Kell
GPF Crossover Event}}
{{Nick is a white mouse (or rat, he's not sure), Ki is an orange tabby cat, Fenton is a bat, and Lindesfarne is an English hedgehog.}}
{{First strip, by GPF artist Jeffrey Darlington}}
Ki: Humans are far from perfect. We pollute our world, wiping out whole ecosystems in the name of making a few extra dollars.
Lindesfarne (thinking): Who knew Rudy's comic was so _prophetic_?!
Ki: What's worse is how we treat each other, discriminating based on gender, or the color of one's skin.
Ki: But there can be a lot of good in humans as well. Art, music, science, compassion... We can do a lot when our hearts are in it.
Lindesfarne: Maybe we're not so different after all...
Ki: I have to ask... why are you so curious about humans, anyway?
Lindesfarne: Just... personal curiosity...
{{Second strip, by Kevin & Kell artist Bill Holbrook}}
[[Fenton and Lindesfarne sit back to back on computers in the Hare-Link ISP's office.]]
Fenton: How do you think our friends are doing?
Lindesfarne: I dunno. Maybe it's not such a good idea to keep them hidden in your smart house.
Fenton: Why?
Lindesfarne: I just get the feeling they're not entirely compatible with it.
[[Back at the tree house]]
Ki: For some reason, I really HATE being stuck up in a tree.
Tree: What d'ya want me to do, "Meow Mix" breath? Call the fire department?
